Mario Bailey's comments on Twitter


Mario said that if someone hasn't played football for UW then they do not have the right to criticize.
As if some white coach who has a disastrous recruiting class, hires the NY Jets groundskeeper as his OC, and then caps it off with a loss to Montana, isn't going to be heavily criticized?
Mario and his enabling behavior is part of the overall culture problem at UW.

Totally agree
I like Mario and what he did for the Dawgs and Quakers, but losing at home to Big Sky teams is a fireable offense at UW. He ought to know that. Playing the race card is lame as hell. -
Never heard of this dude.
Searched.....
Mario Bailey is a retired American football wide receiver who is the all-time reception leader in NFL Europe. He played for the Frankfurt Galaxy from 1995 through 2000 and was a favorite player for the local German fans. He was originally drafted by the Houston Oilers in the sixth round of the 1992 NFL Draft. Wikipedia
Now I know why. -
definitely racism
-
In 1991 he had better numbers than Desmond Howard who won the Heisman. Mario caught 17 TDs in 1991 alone.89ute said:Never heard of this dude.

White coaches never get criticized.

He also later created spin when someone called him out for implying the race cardDerekJohnson said:Mario strongly implied that anyone criticizing Coach Lake was doing so because of racism.

Nobody wants to see Jimmy fail … but at some point results matter -
Using woke rhetoric to defend mediocrity is a perfect representation of this program. Its gonna be special when Jimmy puts his pronouns in his twitter bio after getting blown out next week

Like we say, Mario, fuck off.
Lake is getting criticism because he is a smug dumbshit.

Mario's right, but about the wrong thing. I'm on record that three out of four of the games LAST season were fireable offenses (first and right, btw), but everyone gave a COVID pass for reasons that are still beyond me and instead bitched about the less important aspect of winning that is recruiting (see also: Oregon and USC). Some even were complimentary of the new offense (you know who you are), dooged out over big-dick comebacks (ignoring how inexcusable it is to dig 17 and 21 point first half holes in the first place), and got a boner over the ice-in-veins QB who couldn't play more than one good quarter per game or resist the urge to overthrow every deep ball he attempted.
But, no, it was the recruiting that's the real failure, not just one of many.
And, right or wrong, the language people used to express this frustration--at least here--has been a little loaded, or at least I could see how it would seem so to certain people. The word "lazy" in particular is one known to get the hackles up, yet it came up early and often, in a way that made it seem as if conclusions were being jumped to. Comparisons to Ty aren't helping those optics, either, particularly because their respective incompetence is nothing alike.
Lake needs to be fired. Today. Cohen is ultimately responsible, so start with her. New coach can choose what assistants to boot or keep. But this message would resonate better with some fans and former players if the critics focused from the beginning on coaching, hiring, and, sure, recruiting incompetence instead of, "The offense is improved, the quarterback has a huge dick, this team should roll the conference--oh, but he's lazy and Ty 2.0." -
I'll give you this, in regards to the comparisons to Ty. I have seen that a few times on here, with people quickly drawing comparison to Willingham. And I have thought, "Why Willingham? A more apt comparison is Gilby. Great assistant coaches who have no business being a head coach."1to392831weretaken said:Mario's right, but about the wrong thing.

I want to be clear: I doubt a single person here has been down on Lake because he's black. The language might have fooled some, though. I'm not surprised a black former player might be defensive.

You and I were right about the myth of the great talent
And the lazy remarks pissed me off which is why I went after that poster
Then we lost to Montana
Just keep the call for firing classy Nebraska fans -
It's just a lazy comparison that I have been guilty of as well because it's now plausible that UW goes 0-12.
-
Montana tuff met woke culture!
Mario can shove it. If Pete lost to Montana I would want him fired as Well. -

Is he lazy or is the charge unjustified? I recall Helfrich and he staff being called a "lazy" recruiters. Can you call a black person lazy if they are lazy?1to392831weretaken said:

Excellent post. I've been right there with you since being underwhelmed by the comeback wins to shit teams. I was close to quitting the Huskies, even bought Seahawks season tickets (I've hated the whole 12 thing, but I'm thrilled with this decision), after we didn't send a squad to the P12CG. And I've basically stopped posting here as grandpa Race tried for the first time ever to LIPO.1to392831weretaken said:Mario's right, but about the wrong thing.

Data wise there was room to say things could have been decent with JonDon last year … I’ll take the L for my LIPO perspective as Montana proved it’s played out
I’ve never got the lazy vibe from this staff … particularly when it comes to recruiting. The vibe I’ve gotten is that the hires haven’t been good enough and we’re bringing a knife to a gun fight on the recruiting trail.
My bigger issue with Jimmy has always been that he talks a big game but continually doesn’t back it up. I’ve heard from too many different people that there’s an arrogance to Jimmy … which by itself isn’t a bad thing. But as he kept doubling down on things are showed an unwillingness to course correct, that arrogance is showing itself to be a fatal flaw. That Jimmy can’t see that and/or doesn’t have anybody around him that he trusts to check him … you just kind of plunge forward until you fall off the cliff -
He is now part of the problem. We went through this stupid shit from the peanut gallery with willingham supporters
-
I don’t know if he is lazy or not, but I would guess any coach that loses at home to Montana is lazy. Honestly it should have been by two scores.
He definitely is arrogant. Far too arrogant for his results.
Either way focusing on adjectives is a huge waste of
Time. He needs to be fired. As does the AD more importantly. -
Forgot about that. Really poor take from Mario. Last night and apparent direction of program has nothing to do with color of skin. Nick Saban, Eddie Robinson, China's world famous diving coach, Russian Gymnast Coach, etc if that is what I'm getting from my teams coach then Houston we have a problem.MikeDamone said:He is now part of the problem.

JL appears to be all hat no cattle. You've also (and I agree) mentioned smartest man in the room syndrome. If your going to run your mouth with run the damn ball, WR room soooo much better than last year, ditto QB's, best part of team OL, then when last night happens, you don't get the right to have a post game press conference of standard coach speak like he did. There better be "this is 100% my fault alone it will not happen again and I won't ever stop working to make sure it doesn't" answers to the questions.Tequilla said:Data wise there was room to say things could have been decent with JonDon last year … I’ll take the L for my LIPO perspective as Montana proved it’s played out

All hat and no cattle was like Jim Mora Jr. except he had more sizzle in recruiting. Yikes.
